Verdict

There are very few of these with outstanding credentials but it might be worth siding with SHELBE, twice a course winner in the past and coming here off a cracking run over this trip a fortnight ago. She might have got the verdict with another stride then and, in this contest, having Oisin Orr on board can prove decisive from 2lb higher. Mostawfee produced the best effort of his career last time out over C&D and from just 1lb higher must be considered if able to repeat it now while Duckanddive made a solid fist of things over 7f here two runs back and could get involved. Sleepy Head has improved this year and can surely run better than she did in her visits here last year.
